	Tired of ads?

Sorry I missed the responses to my post a while ago...very rude of me. Broke my ankle so haven't been in front of the 'puter much...not a comfy set-up! Been getting my a$$ kicked in SOCOM II (PS2) instead!

One way or the other, my a$$ keeps gettin' bruised...

Anyway, I'm back, so are there game slots available at the moment?

Cheers

Sorry, but the position is not vacant anymore. Thanks to dancemasseuse I've already found a new partner. He'll start playing as soon as he's back from holidays (in a few days). But thank you for the offer.

There is a position for a temporary sub (presumably until September) in the OFT game (the thread is here).

Hatschy, would you mind sending me this new sub's e-mail so I can start sending copies of the turns once he returns?

Will do when I'm back home. But please keep sending turns to me in the meantime.
Just for clarification: Not dancemasseuse is my new partner but another guy he has admitted to playing CtP.

	Remove this text

actually we kinda do PBEM recruitment here as well and seeing your other posts would like to welcome you!

MP is great just finding times zones to match and such is what throws you off

If you have a newer copy of CTP (I do as previous 2 wore out!!) then it should have the patch on it..

You will need a server file go HERE about halfway down the page there is a zip file download that for the latest server file

Good luck and welocme aboard my friend!

If you want to play PBEM post IN THIS THREAD and we can get ya started as well

Peace

Grandpa Troll

For the download server file, i have done, but how can i do after, where have i to copy it?

TROLL : your link "in this tread" doesn't work...


If i well-understand, there are two differents ways to play : PBEM and multiplayer game....

PBEM = play by e-mail?

	28-07-2004 03:00									#168

yes,
PBEM = play by email (via email)
MP = multiplayer or online play (via server)

PBEM : you have to send the copy file?

i understand now

how many days u have to answer?

when u know when u win?

at 3000 years?

I've never finish at 3000 years, it's a little bit to long... but for multiplayer games i can do it
DO u play more than 2 players together?

in most PBEM games with several players you have 24 hours, then you get a resend, then 24 more hours, then you are nexted (skipped). often longer if the moderator of the game (usually a non-playing person who watches turn flow) doesnt check turns that often.

in 2 player games there usually is no absolute limit for the time you have to send back the turn. but it is regarded as polite to send at least one per two days i would think. if you can afford it, send more often, even many turns per day, then it wont hurt if you are on vacation and cannot send turns.
some players however already get a little ... worried ... if you dont send a turn within 24 hours.

*explicitly NOT looking at Troll*
(not looking i said )

about win conditions:

if you kill all human opponents, or if they concede, you win.
if you finish Alien Life Project in games that use it, you win.
3000 AD the game is over, sure.

other than that, it is often used the rule to count a game as a win if you have 4 times the power graph of your opponent(s) and possibly to hold it for 1 turn. as is used in the Challenge Ladder.

	Put an end to popups!

PBEM:

you select Email play in the menu. when you played your turn, you get a ".csg" file on your Desktop (or whereever) and you send that file to your opponent / the next player.
once you have launched CTP at least once on your (windows) system, windows realizes that you can open these files with a double click. which you do with the file you get back from your opponent / the previous player.

as the players choose.
some people go to war as soon as they meet their opponent. others coexist peacefully, build up ressources, infrastructure, ..., until one decides he is strong enough to take out his opponent, or wins by any other condition, or is attacked first...

in online games, often (sometimes ?) a 100 turn peace period is used.

the "servers.dat" file goes into
"\CTP\ctp_program\" i think
if that doesnt work try
"\CTP\ctp_program\ctp\"

you only need it for online play, though, not for PBEM.

i think 1.2 and 1.21 patch would be helpful. i think thats the standard around here. you get these in the download section of the apolyton/ctp page
